So I convinced my friend Mike Morris
@designsophy to let me blog about these pictures he took of his hometown of Philadelphia. They are completely inspiring and the incredible skylines take me back to a time when I fell in love with my husband in NYC. (Unbeknown to me — though I think everyone else knew before I did.) I was, ironically, also there on a business trip/cocktail party for
Pneuma Books (owned by the awesome Brian Taylor) with Mike, who was my senior designer at the time.
Mike & Brian hired me right out of college after interning for them for a while. They pretty much taught me everything I know about good design and typography. Mike was shocked to know I didn't know what greeking was. I was shocked there was something called greeking. More like geeking.
They showed me the true elegance of the em dash and the importance of kerning.
Hard to believe it's been 10 years.
So, without further adieu — check these out. Nice work, Mikey.
